This book, co-authored by Professor Adam, summarizes the most important results of the research project SEISMID - Seismic System Identification for Vienna Basin. The global aim is to better understand the effect of earthquakes on Viennese brick masonry buildings. The book covers topics such as the risk assessment, numerical modeling of nonlinear behavior of Viennese brick masonry, assessment of location factors specific for earthquakes in the Vienna Basin, and it describes outcomes of experiments on Viennese brick masonry buildings and extracted brick masonry.

This book (in German only) is available at the Unit of Applied Mechanics (amech@uibk.ac.at).
